I am a research scientist in the Capsule project-team at Inria Rennes, in France, since October 2024. Previously, I was an associate professor at the University of Rennes for nine years.
My main research interest is cryptanalysis of symmetric primitives, including block ciphers, stream ciphers and hash functions. In particular, I like to design and develop automatic tools, dedicated or based on external solvers, to search for optimal parameters regarding special classes of attacks.
Most of my publications are referenced on dblp and can be found on eprint or HAL.
